[PHP] register_globals off issues

[Mark Spohr]

I'm very new to PHP/mySQL and am working through the "PHP and mySQL for Dummies" examples. Unfortunately, these were all written with register_globals on and the system I'm using has register_globals off.

I'm having trouble converting the examples to use the $_POST() expression.

Specifically, the examples use a POST with a form variable to run a query and then unset this variable as such:

if (@$form == "yes")
{
unset($form);
}

I'm trying to convert this to use $_POST() as such:

if (@$_POST['form'] == "yes")
{
unset($_POST['form']);
}

However, this does not work. It appears that you can't unset the $_POST['form'] array element.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
I know I'm probably missing a few very obvious things here... but I am a newbie.
